Looks like an Icelandic Formula Offroad. Those 'jeeps' are insane. I'm sure they had it ready to run shortly after.
I always liked this one;

3 times, but nothing like that

I have never rolled my Jeep, but if I do I want my hard top off so I don't break my glass :lol:
-
Cant say I have, or ever want to for that matter. Those videos were crazy though. Kinda funny though cause my friend and I were just talkin about if u could do that with a jeep, just didnt think it would require all that to do it (nitrous v8 tube frame). Definitly crazy.
-
well to answer the question, no i have not rolled one. but i came damn close on my first real trip with my jeep a few weeks ago in LI..45 seconds into the trail i fell into a hole and listed the jeep real bad..teetered at an angle at was way too far over for my own comfort. had two of my friends hanging off the side and a strap on the roll bar while we tried winching me out..to make matters worse, she kept wanting to roll over as the winch pulled....50 min of tiresome digging under the driverside wheels helped rectify my situation and i got pulled out without a scratch. not a bad introduction to the world of jeeping

That's why I won't wheel with mine.

If you roll hard enough, the top will fly off in mostly one piece. :lol:
I still need to knock out the pins for my windshield frame so I can replace them with bolts... Makes removing the windshield a snap.

This was a roll in Hell....Hell's Gate (on Moab's Hell's Revenge trail) to be exact:

Thank God for reinforced roll cages. The chick driving it walked away with only a few scratches and bumps.

That guy was dumb and didn't even bother to follow his spotter.

If I am not mistaken, it was not a guy, it was a gal, and the damage was minimal (she had a poison spider's cage), so they rolled the Jeep back up and she continued riding. Still, kind of sucks to get the Jeep all dented up...

If that's the one I remember, the cage sheared off at the dash, which isn't a good thing.

Depends on your definition of minimal. She was lucky that piece of crap poision spyder cage didn't get her killed. Luckily poison spyder is now out of business and there's one less dash supported "cage" on the market.

Edit: was not a poison spyuder cage, but another of the same design:

OK, so I just mentioned what I read on the Poison Spider (or whichever site it was I saw it at that time) site some time ago... Dont kill me for it...

Poison Spyder is out of business??

Woops...just read the industry news section....ehhh...doesn't affect me in any way.
I wonder what the real story is....you would think he could have easily sold off the shop/name and made a ton of cash.

Answering the initial question: I never even had a chance to roll my jeep (R.I.P). A little off topic, when i was a teenager i was seating shotgun when a friend of mine rolled this:

Front left tire blew out at really high speed sending us right into a ditch, the sti was brand new, the "PR" on the license plate stands for provisional. Subaru said that it was a factory fault and gave him another one. It is a really good car, we both walked away unscratched and with international fame, as you can see it was featured in wreckedexotics.com :naughty:

Rolled once on the trail, flopped 3 other times, 2 on the trail.

Ive floped, rolled, and indoed on the trails so far....
